What is Abcess fluid for GeneXpert(MTB)?
Abscess Fluid for GeneXpert (MTB) is a diagnostic test used to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the bacteria that causes tuberculosis (TB), in an abscess. The test utilizes GeneXpert technology, which is a molecular diagnostic method that detects MTB DNA and assesses drug resistance (especially to rifampicin).
This test is highly sensitive and provides rapid results, aiding in the diagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (when TB affects other parts of the body, such as the lymph nodes or skin). The procedure involves collecting fluid from an abscess, which is then tested for MTB genetic material.
There are minimal risks, with the main concern being discomfort during the fluid collection.
What to expect & how to prepare
Abcess fluid for GeneXpert(MTB) is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis.

- Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.

- Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
